give the person food and water.
B
Be prepared to start CPR if necessary.

Take note of the time the stroke began.

Wait to call 9-1-1 to see if it is serious enough.

Explanation

Be prepared to start CPR if the person stops breathing normally, and note when the symptoms began; that timing can help medical professionals choose treatment. Do not give food or water, since swallowing may be impaired. Do not wait to decide whether it is serious—call 9-1-1 immediately if you suspect a stroke.
